BizBooks Pro is accounting software that installs on your own computer or server instead of running only in a vendor's cloud. It provides GAAP-compliant double-entry bookkeeping, with IFRS available as a reporting standard, along with invoicing, bills, bank feeds and financial statements.
It is aimed at small and midsize businesses, accountants and bookkeepers, accounting firms, nonprofits, churches and governments. The vendor positions it as an alternative to QuickBooks and offers a 12-year price lock, meaning the rate you sign up at stays the same for 12 years.
You install the program on a computer or server, and your financial data sits in a PostgreSQL database that you control. Once installed, you can open the books from other devices, including iPhone, iPad, Android and Chromebook, through a browser. The vendor says it also keeps working when the internet is down.
Your accountant or bookkeeper can connect remotely, and the subscription does not charge per device. Users are capped by plan, and additional team members are added through Bootstrap Add-ons at $120 per year each.
The accounting core includes a chart of accounts, journal entries, bank reconciliation, fixed assets with three depreciation methods, loan amortization schedules and a year-end close. Sales tools cover branded and recurring invoices, Stripe and PayPal payments, time tracking and multi-currency invoicing in 15 currencies. Inventory is included in all plans.
Ten AI capabilities run on Claude from Anthropic. BizBuddy takes typed or spoken instructions and stages entries for approval, while other tools categorize bank transactions, scan receipts, reconcile statements from PDFs, answer questions and write report summaries. Wake-word detection and speech-to-text run locally on the user's machine.

BizBuddy is the built-in assistant, powered by Claude from Anthropic. It takes typed or spoken requests, fills in forms and stages entries for your approval, and nothing posts without you. Other AI features include auto-categorization, receipt OCR, AI statement reconciliation, Q&A, dashboard insights and report narratives.
The company builds its nonprofit plans around FASB ASC 958 reporting, donor-restricted fund tracking and the Program / Management & General / Fundraising expense split. A Church Edition with offering counts, designated funds and year-end giving statements is included in every nonprofit plan.
You pay only the prorated difference between the tiers for the time left in your year, and your renewal date does not change. The new tier's current rate becomes your locked rate for 12 years.
